Chapter 2 Private Meeting (12)
One
Han Wen never thought that one day he would have a private meeting with a man in the middle of the night.
Su Qingxiu was unfathomable, and jumped from the top of the mountain with her in her arms, so frightened that she thought that he was going to drag himself to jump off the cliff and commit suicide, his eyes were closed and he greeted his ancestors for eighteen generations in his heart, and when the thrilling moment passed, she opened her eyes and saw the Wangshan Inn at the foot of the mountain.
"You've hid deep enough. She looked up at the towering Yuntai Mountain, and thought: Jumping down from such a high place with me in her arms and still out of breath and blushing, how many secrets are you hiding?
Su Qing was very helpful to her words of praise and sarcasm, hooked the corners of her lips proudly, and smiled evilly: "My light skills have already reached the realm of perfection, even if I fly into the sky." β
"You're about to become an immortal. Han Wen exclaimed.
Su Qing half-lowered his eyes, "I don't become an immortal, I would rather be a demon." β
This is a strange and unclear statement. Han Wen thought that he had something unspeakable, and wanted to ask why but didn't know how to speak, so he looked at him quietly, forgetting for a moment that he was still holding him in his arms.
Su Qing's eyes flashed, put her down, and took her hand and walked towards the inn.
"What are you bringing me here for?" she remembered about forgetting. Didn't you say a private meeting? Why did you come to the inn, could it be...... Uh, she was scared out of her whimsical and her legs went limp.
Su Qing said, "Eat?"
She was stunned: "Just this?"
"Yes, you wake up hungry every night, and you can't sleep without supper. I haven't had a few late-night snacks in the mountains these days. β
"How do you know that I ......" Before she finished speaking, she was silent, how could she forget, but he had eaten and lived with her for a year, and he basically knew what habits and habits he had. Unexpectedly, he took himself to a private meeting in the middle of the night to have supper, which was very heartwarming and a little touched.
"The food in Yuntai Mountain is light, and I can't swallow it for a few days, and I have lost a lot of weight. After that, we would come here every night for supper and then go back to sleep. Su Qing said, already picked a clean table, took her hand and sat down. "What do you want to eat? Why don't you have a cup of tea to warm up first?" he was considerate, and beckoned Xiao Er to give him a reward, and soon the boxy table was full of steaming food.
"You're so generous. Han Wen glanced at him when he was rewarding-a bag of gold beads! I don't know if the Xingyue family knows that they have accepted a loser, and it doesn't seem too much to spend money on him.
"What is outside the body is not enough to worry about. He said indifferent fame and fortune.
Han Wen glanced at the table and suddenly said, "The salt-soaked pig's trotters here are delicious." β
Su Qing raised his eyes, "You want to eat?"
She nodded.
"Easy to do. He turned to the empty counter and shouted, "Little Er!
No one responded, and it seemed that there were only two of them left in the inn, and it was a little scary.
Su Qing squinted, comforted her, and went to the kitchen with a slightly cold face to find someone to ask for pig's trotters.
Han Wen sat alone for a while, then got up, brushed his sleeves, and walked towards the door.
The moon flickered behind the clouds in the night sky, and the mountains and forests were quiet, except for the small chirping of insects in the grass.
From memory, Han Wen slowly circled around and came to the alley behind the inn, where someone had been waiting for a long time.
When the man saw her coming, he faced the sky and said in an old voice, "You are very trustworthy." β
"You are also very good at keeping your promises, saying that you are waiting for me. Han Wen turned to look at the brightly lit inn, "It's still open for business in the middle of the night, so you believe that I will definitely come to you?"
"Didn't you come, it means that I didn't see the wrong person. β
"Don't get me wrong, I didn't come to you tonight, I was forced to have no choice but to let a man pull out for a private meeting. β
β...... Does he like you?"
"I didn't think about it, and I didn't bother to think about it. β
"If you meet someone who is good to you, you will be together, and if you miss it, it will be too late. β
"Thank you for the proverbs of the elders, I didn't come to see you to talk about me, you should be in a hurry, right?"
β......β
The man was silent for a while, turned around, looked at her, and said slowly, "Did you find her?"
"No, I haven't started looking for it yet. Han Wen patted the bench in the pavilion, sat down with his skirt lifted, and looked up just to meet the man's gaze.
In the moonlight, the figure was not as strong and tough as ordinary people, and he was bent at the waist, as if he was a little hunchbacked.
"What are you waiting for?" the man asked.
Han Wen raised his arm and rested on the guardrail, lazily raised his head to look at the moon, and said unhurriedly: "Timing." β
The man thought for a moment and asked, "Did you really participate in the competition?"
She smiled: "Since you gave me the cloud axis, of course you have to participate." "It's more fun than martial arts, and it's much more interesting than doing business.
The man asked, "You want to win all the contestants." β
She tilted her head, with a meticulous smile on her face, and shook her head: "It's not, I'm not interested in becoming an immortal, and I don't want to ask for a request from the Yuntai Immortal Sect." β
"What's the point of you participating in the competition, it's a waste of my cloud axis. β
"Hey, you took the initiative to give me the cloud axis. Han Wen glanced at him a little angrily, and changed his tone again: "But thanks to that thing, we can enter the top of the mountain." β
The man sat facing her, but as far away as he was, as if he was abiding by the etiquette of the contemporary men and women, his head turned outside the pavilion, and he was also looking at the moon. "When I saw Jinyun and you going out to talk alone that day, I guessed that you are not simple. Let Kun Yuan's proud disciples personally greet the mountain, you are not small. β
Han Wen spinelessly leaned on the pillar behind him, and said softly, "You are quite familiar with Jinyun Immortal?"
"He had come down a few times before, and each time he stayed with me for one night, and over time, they got to know each other. β
"I said, boss, you've been waiting for fifty years, and finally waited for the new 'Fifty Years Election' to start again, why don't you go up the mountain to find someone by yourself?" Han Wen was curiously tempted.
"No, I'm old, I don't need to be young, besides, ......" The man laughed twice, "Do you think Kun Yuan is blind and won't recognize me?"
Han Wen nodded in agreement, and incidentally damaged Kun Yuan: "This head is indeed an old fox." β
"Are you sure you're going to deal with him?" the man worried.
"It's up to you. Han Wen squinted slightly, his eyes sparkling, and something flickered.
The man couldn't help but be surprised, and said, "Me?"
Yes, it's you.
Han Wen nodded solemnly three times on his face, but his heart was secretly refreshed. Great, there's finally a back door for her to beat.
The original plan was like this, she dragged her family to follow the Long family to Yuntai Mountain, and took the opportunity to find that "thing". But there was a change in the middle of the way, and her overconfidence led to neglecting the investigation of the Yuntai Immortal Sect. A "fifty-year election" has become the first difficulty of the plan, she knows that the Yuntai Immortal Sect has been paying attention to the Han family for a long time, but she can't go up the mountain without the cloud axis, and she can't do anything. She believed that the Yuntai Immortal Sect sent Jinyun down the mountain to take them up the mountain on purpose, but she couldn't figure out why Jinyun didn't give her the cloud axis. A few days after going up the mountain, I asked Duan Yunzhou and Luo Shao, and the answer I got was that the Yunzhou was personally delivered to their homes by the people of the Yuntai Immortal Sect. Why didn't she receive it? Regardless of why they didn't give her the cloud axis, the first difficulty had a solution.
When she settled in this inn, she was indeed a little interested in the infatuated boss in the shopkeeper, but she didn't expect that the owner was also interested in herself.
The night before going up the mountain, this person, yes, is the person in front of her, the infatuated boss took the initiative to find her, not only gave her a cloud axis, but also said two words that she couldn't understand at the time.
"My wife has been captured by the villains on the hill and I want you to help me get her back. If you have any questions, I'll be open every night waiting for you to ask. β
At that time, she accepted the cloud axis in a daze, and didn't pay much attention to the second half of the sentence, and with some understanding of the Yuntai Immortal Sect and the competition, she realized the deep meaning of the two sentences.
Therefore, in addition to dealing with the pestering Su Qing in the past few days, she is secretly thinking about how to avoid everyone and secretly go down the mountain. Some questions can't be asked to some people on the mountain, it's too risky, and the only one who can be trusted is this boss of unknown origin and unknown past.
Thanks to Su Qing, she had the opportunity to go down the mountain once.
As this man said, he really opened the shop every day until the evening, just waiting for her to come.
Two
"Is there anything I can do to help you?" asked the infatuated boss.
"You have opened a shop here for 50 years, and you still have a cloud axis in your hand, I think, you were also one of the players in the competition 50 years ago. She said firmly.
He lowered his head and nodded, "I'm a player, yes." β
She also said: "Since you are a contestant, you must go up the mountain to participate in the competition, but you have a cloud axis in your hand...... Among my sister's friends, there was a man surnamed Xu, whose master and uncle also participated in that competition, but unfortunately for some reason, they quit halfway and took the cloud axis with them when they left. I guess only the players who give up the competition in the middle of the game will be able to take the cloud axis with them. β
He nodded again and did not speak.
The air in the mountains and forests is cool at night, and at this time, the wind blows majesticly, and the dead leaves and branches on the ground are swept away, like the sound of ghosts whining, making the mountains and forests become eerie and terrifying.
She spread out her hands, put them under the moon to dry, looked at her anxious eyes with the light like silver frost, and said word by word: "I want to know what happened to the competition back then?"
β...... Have you figured it out?" he asked.
"You're waiting for me, aren't you just waiting for me to ask? β
"Really thought about it?" he re-emphasized.
She was getting a little impatient. It's endless! Say it if you want to say it, pull it down if you don't want to say it! What the hell, ask the old lady to kill you a third time!
Xu is her eyes are too awe-inspiring, and he has a creepy feeling of being targeted by a wild wolf. Swallowed back and asked again and again, and honestly told the incident that had been sealed for fifty years one by one.
At first, she listened carefully, but the more she listened, the more she listened, she couldn't sit still, and her hand hanging outside the pavilion was clenched and gurgling.
When he finished, her face was so gloomy that she scared the ghost to death. With a snap, the guardrail broke...... She exerted too much force, and her hands hurt painfully, but she angrily scolded: "His uncle's is so not human!, no, it's not human at all! These bastards...... Don't worry, this matter is on me, the old lady is angry, the consequences are very serious, see how I fix them. β
He was so moved that he almost knelt down to thank him, "This grace will never be forgotten, if there is a need for the old man in the future, he will definitely bow down and die." β
"Uh...... I don't need a bad old man to do my job for me. The bloody atmosphere she had managed to create was gone in less than three seconds.
Three
In order not to arouse suspicion, after meeting the infatuated boss, Han Wen ran back to the inn without delay.
Butβ
The unrecognizable inn, the little second who knelt on the ground and begged for mercy, and the domineering Su Qing.
She stood at the door with a blank face, and it took a long time to come back to her senses and ask, "What's going on?"
When Su Qing saw him, the cold face of the yin owl immediately returned to the earth, and his smile was brighter and warmer than the sun. "Where have you been?" he came over, taking her hand with one hand and looking up and down as if to check for what was missing, and holding a bowl of pig's trotters in the other.
"I ...... I'll wait for you to get bored, so I'll go out for a walk. She made up an excuse, saying that her face was not red and her heart was not beating, and it was more true than the truth.
He seemed to believe it, breathed a sigh of relief, and said: "I'm scared to death, I thought something happened to you, go out in the future, remember to tell me, don't let me worry." β
"Oh...... Why do I want to talk to you when I go out?" "Who are you? Why do you care about anything?"
"Wen'er, in the wilderness, a girl's family still has to have a sense of prevention. What's more, you have no power to restrain the chicken, and it is dangerous to go out alone. He narrowed his eyes and stroked her head gently and imperiously, with a hint of helplessness and doting in his tone.
Hangeul feels like a child who has made mistakes, being educated and criticized by adults. I want to say something wrong, but I can't find a reason to refute it.
The atmosphere became delicate, and when her mind was stuck, she inadvertently skimmed Xiao Er, who had been kneeling behind him, so she changed the topic and asked in surprise: "Why are they kneeling?"
"Nothing. Su Qing squinted coldly at the back, and said in a voice without any emotion: "I thought they hid you, so I taught you a lesson." β
"......" Hangul didn't know what to say anymore. Just a lesson? She thinks he smashed someone's inn.
The distressed and infatuated boss, last time it was Xiaoxue who smashed the field, this time it was Su Qing who smashed the field, and when he met these two plague gods, he was unlucky.
"Don't be in a daze, let's eat quickly, we'll go back to the top of the mountain to sleep later." Su Qing pulled her to sit on the only intact table and chair in the store, first kept clipping pig's trotters to him, and then casually threw out a brocade bag that was bigger than before. Look at the little two who turned from sadness to joy and ran out, about the gold beads inside are rich and gratifying.
Han Wen couldn't help but look at him, thinking: How rich is he, and what kind of mechanism does he have on his body? Looking like a fairy, where did he get the money bag?
But no matter how she thought about it, she couldn't bear the admiring gaze of a beautiful man sitting next to her during the meal, it was too tormenting and embarrassing, and it made people eat well, didn't you?
"Wen'er still looks as cute when she eats, I really want to turn into food and be eaten by you. Out of nowhere, he burst into a strange compliment.
Poofβshe squirted the pig's trotters that had just been gnawed off.
"Slow down, no one is robbing you, come, wipe your mouth. β
...... "She never wants to eat a late-night snack again."
